• Something we talked about last week, but worth mentioning again, is pulling the elbows back in the set-up position
• This places that hands right where we want them – in front of the hip bones
• Think "elbows back, hands to hips"

• CONDITINING CATEGORY: SPRINT
• We are testing the waters on some previous open workouts, so have a plan of attack and push the intensity today
POWER SNATCHES
• Weight should be light today – But just because the weight is light AND intensity is high today, let’s still keep our snatch mechanics solid…no "grip and rip" today
• Let’s look to keep snatches in 1-2 sets for this short but hot open workout
DOUBLE UNDERS
• The number in each round needs to be something you are "automatic" with. These will most likely be done unbroken each round
• If not quite there, let’s keep each rounds to AMRAP 30s on the jump rope in order to achieve intended stimulus OR modify to singles.

As humans, we like comfort. And anything that challenges that comfort, will be met with resistance. And lots of it. It’s our innate self-preservation mechanism kicking in.
Yet there is a difference between acknowledging the voices, and listening to them.
It is a choice to be lazy.
It is a choice to be frustrated.
It is a choice to be negative.
When we can see these emotions for what they are, we can acknowledge them when they arrive. And then put them where they belong. They do not get a vote in how we live our lives. Only we do.
